Do I need to mask kde-meta too or is there some other way around this??
scratches head
Bringing kde-meta up to version 3.5.6 is going to want to upgrade ALL it's
dependencies to 3.5.6 (which includes kate).
To maintain different versions of of the various KDE packages, you'll need
to
remove the kde-meta package. To make sure 'emerge -u world' (or a
variant),
pulls in new version of other packages, you'll want to 'emerge -n' the
various direct dependencies of kde-meta (kdenetwork-meta etc).
I doubt kate is a direct dependency of kde-meta (I could be wrong). If it
isn't, one (or more) of the other kde${stuff}-meta packages will also try
to
upgrade it. Instead of 'emerge -n'-ing those packages, 'emerge -n' it's
direct dependencies (one of which should be kate).
You may actually find some packages that you don't care about, feel free to
not 'emerge -n' them. They will then not be updated by an 'emerge -u
world'
and my be removed be 'emerge --depclean' (unless they are a dependency of
some other package in world)
In fact, I recently removed all the kde${stuff}-meta packages from my
system
and only installed the KDE applications I wanted. This might result in
significant disk space savings, but YMMV. I now have ~90 packages from the
kde-base category instead of the ~350 pulled in by kde-meta.

[gentoo-user] Is this a KDE split build problem, a KDE problem or just me?
Hey ho, I've installed KDE 3.4.0 using the split ebuilds. Originally I did not install kdebase-meta but just kdebase-startkde, then the extras like kicker and kate and stuff (no Konqueror; I use Krusader and Firefox). This did not last, as I had to install the rest of kdebase-meta when I wanted to install kbiff, which was unfortunate, but noted in the changelog, so fine. KDE works and all programs are installed, but there's something very wrong with the K-menu: 1) KControl does not appear (can be accessed using a Run box), which is annoying and disturbing (if the KDE Control Center does not appear in the KDE menu, something must be truly borked, imo); 2) Kate does not appear in either the menu or in the Open With menu. If I select Kate manually (using the full path to the binary) and then tell KDE to use it for all files of whatever type, it will remember that Kate exists for those types of files. But it doesn't know where the icon is, apparently (another disturbing but minor side-issue); 3) KMenuEdit does not change menu entries (the app runs, but any changes I make to icons or menu item position are not reflected in the menu itself, even after a reboot. And yes, I did of course save my changes, and the the system configuration is being updated dialog did appear and supposedly did its job); 4) KDE Mime-type editor will not allow me to edit entries (I went to text-plain and tried to edit the Kate entry to see if I could associate the icon; kcontrol froze and had to be killed). Is anyone else seeing any of this? I certainly didn't see issues like this under SuSE 9.3 with KDE 3.4, but then again SuSE tweaks madly, so it *could* be a KDE thing. Or it could be a split build thing (something not installed, making communication between the parts of KDE difficult). Or it could just be that I did something completely wrong somehow-- after all, I managed to break GNOME again and I don't know how I did that, either. Any suggestions to point me in a direction so that I could fix/troubleshoot whatever has gone wrong here would be appreciated. Thanks, Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

It seems that I'll have to install these on their own? Hello Mick, I'm just not certain any more exactly which packages belong to which meta(kde) package. I think they are added and dropped over the last few years, resulting in a dynamic grouping or like those you mentioned, not being picked up by and of the kde-meta packages. You fellows really need to read the full set of portage man pages. You sound like mechanics that don't know how spanners work. The contents of packages is determined by upstream (KDE), not by the gentoo devs. Gentoo devs merely split the monolithic tarballs up into whatever apps the KDE devs say is inside it To find out what is in a -meta package: cat $PORTDIR/kde-base/*-meta/*ebuild There isn't a special tool to do this, much as there isn't a tool to tell you what stuff DEPENDs on say apache. There is a general tool, it's equery depends -a Some time ago kde-meta ( the package that calls other kde-meta(sub group packages) was to be done away with. You are mistaken. That has never ever been the case. The monolithic ebuilds have been done away with in favour of split ebuilds. This has been in planning for 2 years right from the beginning of the KDE-3.5 series Now, magically, kde-meta is back, after the Sets solution seems to be too cumbersome for those of us that want a simple and easy method to install a bulk of kde packages. Citation please :-) Zac has never to my knowledge said that sets are too cumbersome for regular people. Sets are not yet in stable portage because he wants the feature to be tested more. Therefore sets cannot be exposed in the portage tree. That's why defined sets are only distributed in the overlays, not in the tree. Other than this '10,000' foot view, you'll have to get more precise information from the gentoo kde devs or others, as I just do not know.. To find out what depends on kate, kweather and kfloppy, use the correct portage tool: a...@nazgul ~ $ equery depends -a kate * Searching for kate ... kde-base/kdesdk-meta-4.3.1 (=kde-base/kate-4.3.1:4.3[kdeprefix=]) kde-base/kdesdk-meta-4.3.3 (!kdeprefix ? =kde-base/kate-4.3.3[-kdeprefix]) (kdeprefix ? =kde-base/kate-4.3.3:4.3[kdeprefix]) a...@nazgul ~ $ equery depends -a kweather * Searching for kweather ... kde-base/kdetoys-meta-4.3.1 (=kde-base/kweather-4.3.1:4.3[kdeprefix=]) kde-base/kdetoys-meta-4.3.3 (!kdeprefix ? =kde-base/kweather-4.3.3[- kdeprefix]) (kdeprefix ? =kde- base/kweather-4.3.3:4.3[kdeprefix]) a...@nazgul ~ $ equery depends -a kfloppy * Searching for kfloppy ... kde-base/kdeutils-meta-4.3.1 (floppy ? =kde- base/kfloppy-4.3.1:4.3[kdeprefix=]) kde-base/kdeutils-meta-4.3.3 (floppy !kdeprefix ? =kde-base/kfloppy-4.3.3[- kdeprefix]) (floppy kdeprefix ? =kde- base/kfloppy-4.3.3:4.3[kdeprefix]) So kate DEPENDS on kdesdk (it's a dev tool, emerge it individually if you just want the editor) kweather DEPENDS on kde-toys kfloppy DEPENDS on kdeutils iff USE=floppy You'd think there'd be a master listing of (kde-4) packages and which one belong to which meta-package or what not; if not a script to tool to reveal this information There is.

[gentoo-user] Upgrading to Qt 5.12.4 makes some applications invisible
Qt was upgraded from 5.12.3 to 5.12.4 and as a result some applications (Clementine and qBittorrent) become invisible when you minimize them and then restore them. They only become visible again when you resize their window, and resizing the window is very slow. This does not affect most applications. Dolphin, Kate/Kwrite, System Settings, SMPlayer, etc, all work fine. Rebuilding Clementine and qBittorrent didn't fix it. Rebuilding kde-frameworks and kde-plasma didn't fix it.

[gentoo-user] gnome menu question
G'day, It has been my impression that the gnome-panel's main menu is based on info in files in /usr/share/applications. However there are items in my menus (for example, other/kate and other/kwrite) without files and there are files without entries (for example, virtualbox.desktop). I've tried 'killall gnome-panel' to force a restart and, hopefully, rebuild the menu tree. The panel did restart, but the menus didn't update and my icons for editor, mail, and browser were b0rked -- not what I wanted! Also, looking in ebuilds I've found menu and desktop related directives, like make_desktop_entry ... and doins ... desktop, but sometimes /usr/share/applications doesn't have a corresponding entry. Can somebody please explain how the gnome main menu is built, where it resides, and how to force a rebuild? Thanks. David

that help with the current problem?
I only use KDE here but from what I have read you can install Konqueror
and still use some other GUI without KDE being installed and possibly no
startkde. Could this be confusing portage into thinking he is doing
this? Maybe?

In KMail, you need to set the language in your Identity, under Advanced. KMail ignores the system-wide setting, and so does KWrite. In Firefox, as far as I can remember the language was already right. I don't use Kate; in fact, it seems not to be present.

Or, if you've gone the whole hog (like me), right-click an ISO in dolphin, choose "properties" and on the general pane, click "file type options".

[gentoo-user] every second rightclick in KDE: the context menu does not stay
Hi, Does anyone else see this? Upon rightclicking in most KDE apps, a context menu appears; but when moving the mouse a bit (away from the menu) and rightclicking again, the context menu appears just shortly: it blinks and stays away. That is... except when rightclicking near the bottom or right edge. Then the menu stays put on every rightclick -- when the menu does not appear to the lower right of the mouse pointer, but to the left or above it, then it always stays put. This happens in most KDE apps (Konqueror, KMail, Konversation, Kate, ...), but does not happen in KWrite, nor on the desktop itself. (In KMail it happens in the message list and the preview pane, but not in the folder list or the composer window.) Anyone else seeing this? Just to make sure I'm not having a subtly broken system.
